Chapter 355: Desperate Scheme
In Coulson's view, Rorschach was able to recover the mutants by means of cunning. In any case, S.H.I.E.L.D. is actually a member of the American bureaucracy, and the people in it will have a bit of bureaucratic thinking.
What is the balance of each other, what is the exchange of interests, as an agent, you must also understand these things in order to investigate the relevant cases. Probably because of the more contact, people like Nick Fury don't look like good people and look at everyone with suspicion.
Even Howard's son, Tony, had to watch for a long time before he joined the Avengers.
Of course, there is probably no Avengers now, only the League of Forgivers that is too green to look at.
But if he had asked Rorschach in person, he would probably have felt that these questions were a waste of time.
An exchange of interests? Poor mutants, is it an exchange of benefits to give them a place to live?
The so-called conspiracy, in Rorschach's view, no longer has much significance.
From the beginning, Rorschach's vision had gone beyond the earth and into the sea of stars.
These problems on the earth, when encountering alien civilizations, will be crushed to pieces under those space warships and alien weapons.
Votes, money, etc., are not worth mentioning at all in the face of a global war of extermination.
Therefore, Rorschach is too lazy to do this, otherwise he would have changed his skin to run for president of the United States, which is not a difficult thing anyway.
Before the advent of the Great War, what really made sense was strength, absolute military theory, not only to survive under the attack of aliens, but also to win the battle, and even fight back and kill the opponent's hometown.
The rise of each civilization adds glory to itself by conquering another civilization.
It's the same not just for the earth, but also for the universe.
If the earthlings are going to rise, then the aliens who come to attack are the best blood sacrifices.
And Rorschach is now on the planet of an alien civilization.
After Rorschach beat Rhodes away in front of Loki, the prince of Asgard did not dare to play any more tricks and honestly brought Rorschach to the military position established by Asgard in Jotunheim.
By the time Rorschach arrived, it could no longer be said to be an outpost, but a town with a diameter of forty or fifty kilometers.
A layer of magical light enveloped the entire town, and countless intricate patterns formed a hemispherical shield, keeping the cold wind out.
As soon as Loki identified himself, the guards let the two into town.
A thin layer of magic array brilliance, inside and outside are completely two worlds. In the town, it is as warm as spring, and outside the town, it is sub-zero cold.
But Rorschach still couldn't figure out what the point of Asgard building a town here?
The whole of Jotunheim is not much smaller than the earth, can the Asgardians magically transform the climate of the entire planet?
Otherwise, as long as the frost giants avoided this place, or used long-range attacks to consume the energy of the magic array, wouldn't the Asgardians be busy in vain?
With such a question, Rorschach did not waste time, and directly asked Thor to ask for clarification.
Unfortunately, Loki asked someone to ask, only to find out that Thor was not in the town.
"Thor left the magical barrier with a group of soldiers and fought the Frost Giants about two thousand kilometers away." The soldiers of Asgard reported to Loki.
"What the hell is this? What's the point of spending so much effort to build a base, and then running out to fight people? Rorschach asked.
Loki was also a little confused, but he was different from Rorschach, who was a half-apprentice of the Kama Taj mage and had barely taken classes for a few days, but Loki was a real master of magic.
Loki observed the magical structure of the town for a while, and then said to Rorschach, "Looks like Thor is planning to play a big game." The effect of this magic array is not to maintain temperature, but to extract energy. And the source of this energy comes from deep underground. ”
As soon as Loki said this, Rorschach turned his attention to his feet.
A faint tremor erupted from the soles of Rorschach's feet and carried deep into the earth. After a while, Rorschach sensed the feedback of the vibration and said in surprise, "There is magma deep underground!" ”
This magic array is to directly extract the heat of magma to maintain the temperature of the town. Although the surface of Jotunheim is frozen for thousands of miles, there is still no hot magma that has cooled deep underground.
"Could it be that Thor is trying to detonate this underground magma?" Rorschach said in surprise.
This tactic is a bit ridiculous to talk about. Because Rorschach had just detected that the ground under his feet was quite thick, and there were no weak spots such as craters.
"Although the effect of this magic array is to extract energy, if the effect of the formation is reversed, it can explode the ground in this range in an instant. At that time, even if it is not directly blasted through to the location of the magma, it will not be much worse. ”
"But even if Thor really created a man-made flaming mountain, what would it mean to the Frost Giants?" Rorschach asked.
"It means a lot, Jotunheim is frozen all year round, and the adult individuals of the Frost Giants are able to adapt to large temperature differences, but their children can't tolerate them. If Thor does blow up a few fire pits in Jotunheim, the temperature of the entire planet will increase by a degree or two, and those frost giant babies will probably not be able to bear it. Death is not enough, but it will definitely greatly increase the rate of premature death, and it is easy to be weak and sick. In this way, the frost giants are forced to fight a decisive battle. Loki explained.
"Hold the grass, this is a desperate plan! But it doesn't look like Thor's style. Rorschach said suspiciously.
Thor, the god of thunder, still gives Rorschach the impression of a reckless man with a muscular brain, and such a ruthless plan is not like he can come up with.
"Actually, it's not too bad, it would have been for Heimdall to drive the rainbow bridge to maximum power, and Jotunheim would have been sliced to pieces soon. It's just that my mother's father is unwilling, and Thor has become smarter, so that he will not be considered to exterminate the frost giants, and will not make his father object, but he can also force them to have a decisive battle, which even I admire. Loki said with emotion.
This explanation is reasonable. After all, he is the crown prince of Asgard, and Thor's IQ is actually normal, but he is just used to solving problems with violence. And his journey to the earth was influenced by Rorschach, and I don't know if it was the butterfly effect, which made his personality change.
"According to you, Thor went out to fight, apparently discovering another place to dig a pit and bury magic explosives?" Rorschach asked.
"Most likely, this magic array has been perfected, and even if the frost giant comes to attack, it can resist for a long time, so Thor went to prepare another magic array." Loki said
"In that case, let's not waste time!" After Rorschach finished speaking, he grabbed Loki, left the town directly through the space door, and quickly flashed in the direction that the soldier pointed out just now.
